What is the job role?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a creative and innovative analyst to lead on embedding and modelling Population Health Management (PHM) approaches within the Council and across the integrated care system in Coventry.

This a shared post across our Adult Social Care and Public Health Insight teams and will require you to work proactively and collaboratively with a range of partners in different disciplines across social care and health.

You will enable and deliver high quality data insights and analysis to drive real change to improve health and care outcomes for the people of Coventry and reduce inequalities. This will involve you providing expertise and challenge into project and management teams both within and outside the Council. You will be supported by colleagues within the Council’s Insight team, as well as being part of a wider virtual PHM team across Coventry and Warwickshire Integrated Care System (ICS).

Your role will be to

This is a time of significant change within health and care, as the new Integrated Care System becomes established, with core PHM capabilities being developed through the Coventry and Warwickshire PHM Roadmap, and adult social care reforms are planned.
